Ingredients

  • 3 cups oat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 cups pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (or any milk)
  • 1 cup coconut sugar
  • Crumb Topping:
  • 3 tablespoons oat flour
  • 3 tablespoons rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 12-count muffin tin and line with muffin liners.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together oat flour, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice.
  3. In another bowl, whisk pumpkin puree, eggs, melted coconut oil, almond milk, and coconut sugar until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
  6. For the crumb topping, mix oat flour, rolled oats, coconut sugar, cinnamon, and melted coconut oil until crumbly.
  7. Sprinkle topping evenly over each muffin.
  8. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
  9. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Don’t overmix the batter to keep the muffins light.
  • Use homemade oat flour by blending rolled oats until fine.
  • Omit the crumb topping for a simpler version.
  • Reduce sugar slightly for a less sweet muffin.
  • Make it vegan with flax eggs and plant-based milk.
